  • Patent number: 6986206
    Abstract: A hair clipping device includes a housing, a bladeset engageable upon the housing and including at least one stationary blade and at least one moving blade configured for reciprocal movement relative to the at least one stationary blade. The stationary blade has a first cutting edge and a second cutting edge, the at least one moving blade including a first moving edge configured for reciprocal movement relative to the first cutting edge, and a second moving edge configured for reciprocal movement relative to the second cutting edge. The housing defines a cutting location for the blades and the bladeset is rotatably engageable on the housing between a first position in which the first edges are employed, and a second position in which the second edges are employed. The housing encloses an apparatus for creating a vacuum, and defines a vacuum intake.

  • Patent number: 6665938
    Abstract: A hair clipping device includes a housing, a blade chassis engageable upon the housing and having a bladeset including a stationary blade and at least one moving blade configured for reciprocal movement relative to the stationary blade. A comb assembly is configured for releasable attachment to the blade chassis and includes a comb base and a comb member. The comb member is selectively slidably adjustable relative to the comb base between a retracted position and an extended position. An adjustment mechanism is provided for selectively adjusting the comb member between the extended position and the retracted position, the adjustment mechanism having a handle and being configured so that movement of the handle will cause extension or retraction of the comb member relative to the comb base. In a hair clipping device, a housing encloses an apparatus for creating a vacuum, and has a vacuum inlet.

  • Publication number: 20020073549
    Abstract: A hair clipping device including a housing defining a vacuum intake, a fan chamber and a vacuum passageway defining fluid communication between the vacuum intake and the fan chamber. A fan is rotatably disposed in the fan chamber and has an axis of rotation. The vacuum passageway has a first portion being generally parallel to the axis of rotation and is configured so that air is drawn into the intake in a first direction, and enters the fan chamber in a substantially opposite direction, and the vacuum passageway includes a second portion extending generally perpendicular to the first portion, the second portion being removable from the housing and configured as a clipping trap. The vacuum intake has at least one formation for deflecting clippings into the intake. A blade chassis is rotatably mounted to the housing to provide multiple cutting edges relative to a cutting location which is in operational proximity to the intake.
